Marin Rei<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marin is a master of hospitality. As soon as she started working, she started working in the tourism industry at a resort hotel overseas. She has demonstrated her talent without regret for her meticulous care and behaviour that Japanese people have long possessed. In the aviation industry, as a flight attendant for a European airline, she served customers with the \u201cOmotenashi Spirit\u201d. She has often received words of appreciation from customers through her company. She is still young, but she is showing her talent in management.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


\u25a0\u25a1 Our mission \u25a1\u25a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To share Japan\u2019s authentic craftsmanship and flavors with the world \u2014 sustainably and transparently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0\u25a1 Our philosophy \u25a1\u25a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“Ho\u2018okipa\u201d represents the spirit of genuine hospitality \u2014 openness, respect, and connection.
We work closely with local producers who dedicate their lives to maintaining Japan\u2019s artisanal traditions, ensuring every product we export carries a story worth sharing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0\u25a1 Founder\u2019s Message \u25a1\u25a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At MY Ho\u2018okipa, we believe business should start with trust and sincerity.
We aim to build bridges between Japan\u2019s small producers and the global community through honest, meaningful trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

—- Marin & Yuichi Founder, CEO<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, Japanese culture and customs have attracted attention overseas.
Our company will not develop our own products, but will promote Japanese companies\u2019 traditional technologies and services, as well as the soft aspects of Japanese customs and traditions. We will also expand and develop Japanese hospitality overseas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, this is a project called the \u201cGiving Back Project.\u201d We have received a lot of \u201cOmotenashi (Hospitality)\u201d through the products and services of various companies in Japan, where we were born and raised. We sincerely hope that this project will create a better mutual market environment between Japan and other countries. We also hope Japanese technology and services will be recognized more than ever. The Japanese economy will grow as a result of this.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Office-less and paperless<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of our founders, Yuichi, has been proposing paperless office work to local companies for over 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are completely office-less and paperless. Open your laptop and there you are at work. Although there is a drawback that it is difficult to know the boundary between on and off duty, we believe this is a greater advantage than that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are based in Japan but also overseas, but we do not need to spend a lot of money to set up an office. We hope to pass the savings on to our clients in service fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We understand that this may be inconvenient for some customers, but we appreciate your understanding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
